Sharing a 36-week bumpdate! I can’t believe I only have about six weeks to go, depending on when Baby A decides to make his big debut.
We just had our baby shower last weekend, and we’re putting the finishing touches on the nursery, installing the car seat, etc. So we’re feeling ready for Baby’s arrival!
I mentioned on my Stories a couple of months ago that I had incorporated Ritual’s new Natal Choline into my routine and wanted to share a more in-depth post about it on the blog.
When I saw that Ritual had launched this new product, I thought, perfect timing! Ritual multivitamins and then prenatal multivitamins have been a staple of my wellness routine for years, and the Natal Choline supplement is a fantastic option for moms-to-be.
The more I read about Choline and research around it, the more I realized how important it is.
I discovered that pregnancy increases the demand for Choline, but over 95% of pregnant women aren’t getting enough of it from their diet alone.
Ritual’s Natal Choline is a clinically-backed dietary supplement for pregnant women that helps support your baby’s cognitive development.*
Once learning all this, I immediately hopped on the Natal Choline bandwagon!

Why is Choline Important for Pregnant Women?
A clinical study found that 550 mg of supplementary Choline during pregnancy (in addition to dietary intake) can help improve information processing speed in infancy and support sustained attention in early childhood.*
The Natal Choline supplement helps the body efficiently use Omega-3 DHA, a key nutrient to help support fetal brain development.*
When taken postpartum, Natal Choline also helps increase Choline content in breast milk.*
How I Take the Natal Choline
Ritual’s Natal Choline is easy to incorporate into my daily routine because the delayed-release capsules can be taken with or without food.
I keep the Natal Choline on my nightstand along with Ritual’s Prenatal Multivitamins, and I take two nightly capsules with water right before I go to bed.
Ritual designed the Natal Choline supplement with its Essential Prenatal and Postnatal vitamins in mind. Together, these supplements help support mom’s increased demand for Choline, which can be hard to achieve through food alone.*
I’m so glad I found Ritual’s Natal Choline supplement and that they launched during my pregnancy so I can take advantage of its benefits, and I highly recommend it to my fellow expecting moms!
